We have analyzed the pseudorapidity spectra of charged relativistic particles with β > 0.7 produced in Pb + Em (at energy 158 A GeV) reactions as a function of centrality. The relativistic nucleus ...beams were obtained from SPS machine. The number of g-particles (particles with 0.23 ≤ β ≤ 0.7) has been used to fix the centrality. We have applied the maximum entropy method to analyses the spectra and found some selected pseudorapidity values—nontrivial structure.

The first results of the geometry GEANT3 simulation of the three-arm magnetic spectrometer SCAN3 are presented in this article. The possibility of detection of exotic nuclei (such as eta-mesic ...nucleus) with help of the SCAN3 and the Nuclotron internal target is shown.

induced interactions with Ag(Br) nuclei in emulsion detector have been investigated. Nonstatistical ...well-ordered ring-like structures of produced particles in azimuthal plane of a collision have been found, and their parameters have been determined.
We have analyzed the behavior of different characteristics of hadron-nuclear and nuclear-nuclear interactions as a function of centrality to get a signal on the formation of intermediate baryon ...systems. We observed that the data demonstrate the regime change and saturation. The angular distributions of slow particles exhibit some structure in the above mentioned reactions at low energy. We believe that the structure could be connected with the formation and decay of the percolation cluster. With increasing the mass of colliding nuclei, the structure starts to become weak and almost disappears ultimately. This shows that the number of secondary internuclear interactions increases with increasing the mass of the colliding nuclei. The latter could be a reason of the disintegration of any intermediate formations as well as clusters, which decrease their influence on the angular distribution of the emitted particles.

The angular structures of particles produced in {sup 208}Pb-induced collisions with Ag(Br) nuclei in an emulsion detector at 158 A GeV/c have been investigated. Nonstatistical ringlike substructures ...in the azimuthal plane of the collision have been found and their parameters have been determined. An indication of the formation of ringlike substructures from two symmetrical emission cones, one in the forward and the other in the backward direction in the center-of-mass system, has been obtained. The ringlike substructures' parameters have been determined. The experimental results are in an agreement with I.M. Dremin's idea that the mechanism of the ringlike substructures' formation in nuclear collisions is similar to that of Cherenkov electromagnetic radiation.

The results of investigation of the dissociation of the 2.86-A-GeV/c{sup 14}N nucleus in an emulsion are presented. The cross sections for various fragmentation channels are given. The invariant ...approach to analysis of fragmentation is used. The momentum and correlation characteristics of the {alpha} particles for the {sup 14}N {sup {yields}} 3{alpha} + X channel in the laboratory system and c.m.s. of three {alpha} particles are examined. The results obtained for the {sup 14}N nucleus are compared with similar data for the {sup 12}C and {sup 16}O nuclei.
